The De Vere Society

The De Vere Society is a group dedicated to exploring the theory that Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford, was the true author of William Shakespeare’s plays and poems. Supporters believe De Vere’s life, education, and experiences align more closely with the themes in the works than William Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon. The society promotes research, discussions, and evidence to challenge traditional authorship ideas, aiming to understand the historical and literary implications of this alternative theory. It primarily appeals to those interested in literary history, authorship debates, and the authorship question surrounding the Bard’s true identity.
